Book Reviews
[A]n old-fashioned melodrama.... Readers should be prepared for implausible plotting, an unsympathetic protagonist, and a cliched denouement. Hopefully, Gudenkauf will return to form next time.
Publishers Weekly
This fast-paced read will appeal to fans of psychological suspense like that by Joy Fielding.
Booklist
Atmospheric... Gudenkauf expertly develops the story from Sarah's perspective, so readers ask questions, doubt answers, and seek the truth right along with her.... [M]ysterious moments... sustain...suspicion until the final pages.
Bookpage
[A] neatly sewn-up plot. Light on surprises and character development, this tepid thriller will have most astute readers correctly guessing the ending halfway through.
